I did not understand this: " Technology improves we work more ".
Technology has many advantages, but it brings a great disadvantage as well, it takes away people's jobs. I will give an example, in my country there are factories of processing of nuts and in that factory for example does not have technology, are 50 workers and if we were to install the appropriate equipment to process the cashew nuts? we would have to fire more than 70% of the workers, because the technology would be much faster, more efficient and cheaper. so technology does not increase the workload of workers, it does with decreasing employment

The goal of technology was for everyone to have easier lives and work less. Well todays generations have it much tougher. They are working for much lower wages and longer hours. Its next to impossible for millenials to purchase a house on their own. Something here itsn't right, Capitalism?
I actually think otherwise, because of mahineries and technologies lesser manpower are now needed in factories and companies. The competition is now tougher but the wages most of it got higher and it actually takes lesser hours because of the faster system of technologies.
In the develop countries technology cannot help people too much especially to make living because the competitions to get decent works is very tight because all of people on those countries were very poor and at this time the easiest from technology only belong to rich people which is they can able to buy anything they want but unfortunately poor people still being poor until whenever and technology can't help too much for them
Unfortunately, many do not see their lives differently. They believe that it is the norm. Have 2 loans: one for the car, the other for repairs and furniture and mortgage pay 20 years. For many, it is normal to work 8-10 hours a day and spend their time on money, and the money does not come to them, they go to repay the loan and mortgage. In the end, they get 2 pennies and say that all the fault of the government, MPs, the President, but not themselves. It's a Problem in their head.

yes it is, because if you know the meaning of technology actually philosophically. technology is a tool used by humans to facilitate and accelerate an activity or work. that's the meaning of technology literally

Is it really gets tougher in these generation? As what I have obeserved, technology has got bigger and continue to evolve through different aspects of life. One example is the blockchain which makes business easier and faster in terms of information and investments.
I think it can be very big help for us to improve our technology because it more easier for us in our daily life but i dont think so that it can be affected in our wage because human is still the front row of it because the technology were not gonna work without human.
The invention of technology has been of a great benefit to everyone on earth. Through technology, the input if man has undergone superb change and will always like improvement in our daily technologies.

In general, the wages given by a company will be in accordance with the skills possessed by workers. If the work done is related to technology, I think the wages that will be received must be commensurate with the skills we have. 
It think there is a better word to describe it - Greediness! As soon as technology came forward so many people lost their jobs, only because machines did it better. They supposed to help us not destroy our income! Now its the time, where we have to outgrow technology and become better. Until it happens we will work harder

Here, apparently, our life should look more widely and look at it from the angle of the meaning of life. Humanity has certain global tasks that it must solve. Everyone has the same tasks, only more concrete ones. Life, our existence in this world forces us to work and develop, to facilitate our life and improving ourselves spiritually. At the same time, the spiritual side of our life has priority. We simply will not be allowed to have such a level of technical progress that would stop our spiritual development. Spiritual development can only be by overcoming various obstacles and developing certain spiritual qualities. Therefore, technological progress is a continuous process, we can not come to full prosperity, it will contradict the common tasks of mankind.

I can say it's all about the mindset and the determination to have a better future. If you work for longer hours and lower wages then you should do something to make it better. Perhaps you need to acquire new skills that might be paying more than what you are doing now. You need to sacrifice at first and then later on, you would be able to feel the benefits of all your sacrifices. If you think that you are in that situation because of other people then you would not progress.
will try to acquire things that will help their business so we can't do nothing but to accept the fact that in the real world capitalist earned more than the
laborer which needed to double its labor in order to survive.

Of course if our technology improves, we will be inspired working and since it will become faster we can finish plenry of things to do. we will be motivated and we will work harder.
Technology improves yes, but it hasn't improved to that level yet. I mean not everything can be solved with technology, we have a long way to go before we can really work less.
but atleast technology make our live go easier than before.much benefit from technology developtment.we can take example to UBER and GRAB, they give us simplicity go everywhere althoug we have no car.That is the purpose of technology, to make our live easier. Without these technologies, our works will be harder and far more complicated than what we are doing right now.
Though the disadvantage of these technologies is the pollution that it brings in our world. One of the creations of man that destroys our world is these technologies that emits toxic wastes. It is efficient to have these technologies but is still has it's disadvantages to people in to our world.

As I see nowadays the "millenials" have access to items the last generations couldn't, because they were expensive. It's an improvement, and in a big parcel thanks to Capitalism. Take the 2000's as an example: cellphones, computers were scarce, and now anyone has a cellphone (modern ones) or a laptop.
Also, the workload is the same like always... The wages are normal too.
Life could be much better, but from the financial aspect it's much better than it was decades ago.
* Blaming Capitalism won't help anyone anyway!
If there are more new technology ,it will really improve especially our economy for it brings more improvement than the usual works, with this technology ,it can help lessen the burden of the old process way of working, new technology provides fast and improve ways of work which in turn will gain productivity.

Not really sure where you living at but if work has something to do with technology, then the pay should be commensurate on your tech skills so its not lower wages, in my opinion. So if you work longer hours then obviously bigger pay.
So its possible that they can purchase a house of their own. I guess every generation has this mind set and not applicable for millennials alone, I myself was a IT graduate and find good job and nice pay and was able to purchase a house myself.
I Guess Op is pointing not only for the IT graduates but more particularly for those who has not graduated,the capability to find good paying works would be harder as the means of living nowadays are very high compared to what we have couple of years ago
Capitalism maybe is one good reason for this problem but the competency for me is the most applicable thing about the requirements for being accepted in jobs.more people wanted to find high paying jobs but they don’t even competent on that said work
Technology improves yes, but it hasn't improved to that level yet. I mean not everything can be solved with technology, we have a long way to go before we can really work less.

Technology is making our lives easier it has create more job opportunity so it's not the technology fault, the main reason most people are struggling for economic is because the poor get poorer the rich get richer, nowadays people are creating money from money, in order to make more money you need to invest more money, that is why the middle class people are now struggling
